ndc start

[Drizzt]

Hi,

You need to start up named from the boot scripts. On rc.d boot style
systems, place a link in the rc3.d directory that points to the named script
which actually fires up the named daemon for you:

become root/superuser

cd /etc/init.d/rc3.d
ln -s ../init.d/named S55named

confirm this with:
ls -al S55named

hopefully you'll see:
S55named -> ../init.d/named

confirm that it's up after rebooting by either using nslookup, or by
checking your /var/log/messages for a succesfull startup of named.

Hi,
I've been working on setting up a DNS server at home. I have it working
somehow but I'm still polishing. One thing is the way I have to get it
running. When I boot up the system nsllokup won't work. I have to type "ndc
start" & then everything takes off. How would I get this to start
automatically? Does this indicate that I might have something screwed up?
Thanks,
Bruce Ordway
